or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g.  If  devices  are  provided  for  the  connection  of  dust  extraction  and       

collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. 

Use 

of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

4.   Power tool use and care.

a.  Do  not  force  the  power  tool.  Use  the  correct  power  tool  for  your      

application.

 The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for 

which it was designed.

b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. 

   

Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must 
be repaired.

c.  Disconnect  the  plug  from  the  power  source  before  making  any 

adjustments,  changing  accessories,  or  storing  power  tools. 

Such 

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow      

persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate 

the power tool.

 Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving       

parts,  breakage  of  parts  and  any  other  condition  that  may  affect  the       

power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before 

use.

 Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

 Properly maintained cutting tools with         

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with      

these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of 

power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to 

be performed.

 Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could 

result in a hazardous situation.

5.   Service

a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only 

identical replacement parts. 

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool 

is maintained.

HEALTH ADVICE

WARNING!

 When drilling, sanding, sawing or grinding, dust particles will be

produced. In some instances, depending on the materials you are working with,

this dust can be particularly harmful to you (e.g. lead from old gloss paint).
You are advised to consider the risks associated with the materials you are working 
with and to reduce the risk of exposure. You should:
-- Work in a well-ventilated area.
-Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially 
designed to filter microscopic particles.
